My god, this story: Student at Groves HS in Birmingham, Mi, is incarcerated in a juvenile facility on the alleged probation violation of not keeping up with her online schoolwork during the pandemic. She& #39;s still there. Surprise twist in the next tweet. https://www.propublica.org/article/a-teenager-didnt-do-her-online-schoolwork-so-a-judge-sent-her-to-juvenile-detention">https://www.propublica.org/article/a...

The surprise twist is that the kid is Black. Okay, that probably didn& #39;t surprise you. (Groves, one of the top schools in the state, is largely well off and white.)

Her teacher said she wasn& #39;t handling her online work less well than her peers. And the court did not at all explore whether her ADHD had been accommodated during the pandemic.

A shameful decision by Judge Mary Ellen Brennan. A truly extreme case of needless, harmful incarceration.
